SUBLETTE COUNTY UNIFIED FIRE
Update for the Pocket Creek Fire. 11:50 a.m. June 30, 2025.
Crews from Sublette County Unified Fire, BLM, and USFS spent
the weekend mopping up the Pocket Creek Fire. The around-
the-clock effort controlled several flare-ups and hot spots,
keeping the crews very busy. The fire that started on Friday
afternoon destroyed one permanent residence and several
outbuildings. The 209-acre fire is now listed as contained
and will be monitored over the next several days until the
fire is completely extinguished. Initial attack crews are
credited with making a fast, aggressive attack using
multiple ground and air resources, and stopping the spread
of the fire before it could become a major incident.
